Portuguese Verdelho

Portuguese Verdelho is a white grape variety that originates in Portugal, specifically in the Madeira region.

When used to produce still wines, Verdelho offers an aromatic profile, with notes of citrus, stone fruit, and often a distinct minerality. It’s versatile and can create a range of styles from dry to sweet, all typically characterised by a vibrant acidity that lends freshness to the wines. Portuguese Verdelho is a delightful choice for those seeking a balanced and intriguing white wine.
